Safe and Sound » Newt [Maze Runner]

one.

Avia's P.O.V

I felt as if I had jumped off a building, and I was falling quickly to the ground.

My chest felt tight, making it hard to breathe.

I saw people around me in lab coats, sticking syringes into my arms.

People were in glass tubes full of water, screaming for help. I saw them. Everyone saw them, yet no one helped them.

I woke as a bright light flooded the room I was in.

No scratch that, the cage.

I sat up, backing against the wall.

Teenage boys around my age gathered around the cage, all murmuring to each other their hunches about me and what I was doing here.

Two boys came over and opened the doors, allowing me a better view of everyone.

One hopped down, offering a hand out to me.

I stared at it, debating what to do.

He extended it a little further; I still stared.

"You going to take my hand or not?" He asked.

He had an accent. British.

I nodded and took his hand hesitantly.

He helped me up, putting a hand on my lower back.

"I'm Newt. That's Alby." He said, gesturing to himself and the other boy standing outside of the cage.

I stared at them.

He let out a short sigh. Probably of frustration.

"What are you called?" He asked, looking back to me.

I shook my head.

"I-I don't know.." I said, playing with my fingers and looking to the ground.

"Here." He said, helping me climb out of the cage.

I stepped out and realized I was the only girl. Lovely.

I looked around, taking in my surroundings.

A large cement wall covered in vines surrounded us, making it difficult for a way out.

"Well, Greenie," said Alby, placing a hand on my shoulder.

"Welcome to the Glade."
